INSTALLATION OF YOUR NEW GRILL
Leak Testing
Perform a leak test at least once each year whether the gas supply cylinder has
been disconnected or not. In addition, anytime the gas cylinder is connected to
the regulator or any part of the gas system is disconnected or replaced, conduct
the leak testing. This applies to natural gas as well as LP Gas.
As a safety precaution, remember to always leak test your grill outdoor in a
well-ventilated area. Never smoke or permit sources of ignition in the area
while doing a leak test. Do not use a flame, such as a lighted match to test for
leaks. Use only a leak testing solution as specified below.
Leak Testing Procedure
1. Prepare a leak testing solution of sudsy water by
mixing in a spray bottle half-liquid soap and half
water.
2. Check and make sure all the control knobs are in
the OFF position.
3. Turn cylinder valve knob counter clockwise one
turn to open.
4. Apply leak-testing solution by spraying on joints of
the gas delivery system.
5. Blowing bubbles in the soap solution indicates that
a leak is present.
6. Stop a leak by tightening the loose joint or by
replacing the faulty part with a replacement part rec-
ommended by the manufacturer. Do not attempt to
repair the cylinder valve if it should become damaged.
The cylinder must be replaced.
